How does Elen in Oregon like the climate? Quite a change from sunny CA!

I know PA is cold. We were stationed there one winter. Cold thoughts about that place!

The second session had a children’s choir, and they were like miniature angels, in white dresses or white tops and dark skirts or slacks. They sang two songs, both of which brought tears to my eyes, and though I can’t recall the name of the first one, the second was “Gethsemane” which I bawl over every time it’s sung by miniature angels.

Anyway, they sang one more to close out the talks, but Joze Texiera spoke, and he has almost perfect pronunciation on the English language, now. However, Ulisses Soares was the last speaker, and he still has a very pronounced accent that I’m sure you would find adorable!

Tomorrow is another day, but I’ll be able to catch the talks for the next session by tomorrow morning. And they will be out in printed form, too, so there will be lots of ways to catch up.

So, I hope you have a good evening, and I’ll see you in the morning!

She likes it so far. I get postcards from sites she’s visited.

Glad you enjoyed your uplifting talks, and I hope you have a good night. I’m sure I’d be crazy about the accents.
